Ladies European Tour stars Pia Babnik, Bronte Law, Olivia Cowan and Emily Pedersen will join world number one Lydia Ko and LPGA Tour star Danielle Kang at the Aramco Team Series Singapore at Laguna National Golf Resort from March 16-18.

The sixth stop on the LET’s record-breaking schedule will see the quartet joined by young LPGA and LET star, and fellow ambassador Pauline Roussin and they follow two of the world’s best female golfers, Ko and Kang, in joining the field to compete for the $1 million prizefund presented by Public Investment Fund – Singapore.

Babnik and Pedersen are no strangers to success in Aramco Team Series events with both triumphing in Jeddah, in 2020 and 2021 respectively, while Cowan joined the winners circle as recently as October 2022 after clinching her maiden LET victory in the Hero Women’s Indian Open.

19-year-old Babnik is one of the game’s brightest talents and is excited to tee it up in Singapore next month and experience a new golf course in Laguna National Golf Resort Club commenting: “I always enjoy the Aramco Team Series events when we play them and have also fortunately been reasonably successful whenever I have played.

“Golf Saudi, the Aramco Team Series and the LET are doing great things to help continue to grow women’s golf around the world and by taking the events to new countries and destinations this supports that continued growth.

“I am looking forward to playing at Laguna National Golf Resort Club next month, I have never played there but have heard great things about the golf course so it should be a great event.”

Cowan who has started her season with tied seventh at the Lalla Meryem Cup is equally thrilled to be playing the first Aramco Team Series event of the year and added: “It has been an enjoyable and solid start to the season and I’m really looking forward to getting to Singapore and playing the first Aramco Team Series event at Laguna National Golf Resort Club.

“Singapore is an amazing place to visit, and the Aramco Team Series events are always great weeks to be a part of. It should be a great week and it is also amazing to have two of the world’s best players in Lydia and Danielle playing to strengthen the field even further.”

Pedersen, who originates from Copenhagen in Denmark, echoed the sentiments of Babnik and Cowan and concluded: “I can’t wait. We are always so well looked after on Aramco Team Series weeks, and it is great fun to have the mixture of the team and individual event.

“I’ve started the season really positively and I’m looking forward to getting to Singapore and challenging for another title.”

Further to the aforementioned players, Swedes Linn Grant and Johanna Gustavsson, and young star Chiara Noja will also be appearing at Laguna National Golf Resort Club.
